Motat

LI.To learn about STEAM

We went to MOTAT which was a really big museum with interesting and amazing stuff.
We saw a fire station with a firetruck used back in the days. We even saw a telecommunication exhibit with dial phones, and stuff like Morse codes. We then saw a car exhibit and saw a super car, a car that Queen Elizabeth 2nd used, and saw car engines. Next we saw a old village with a classroom, church, workshop.


When we finished looking around we firstly made an electric car! We first had to make the body of the car using cardboard. The he engine was a motor and a fan. The wheels were small wheels, and a skewer. We then had to connect the parts in a way.

Lastly we made a flashlight using some connecting blocks. We first had to use the motor again, and connect a LED light to the motor and span a cog to make the light flicker. We then had to use the connecting blocks, cogs, and more to try to keep the LED light on instead of it just flickering.

L.I:To do exercises.
For HIIT we did three activities stands for high intensity int interval training.We did:

  • Pullups
  • Pressup
  • Mountain Climbers
How To Do Mountain Climbers
There are two ways to do Mountain Climbers.The first way
is to go on the ground and get into a press up position.Then 
try to make your knee's touch your elbow.To do that pretend your 
running.The other is to do it standing up.So you lean your hands on 
something and try to make it touch your knee's.To do that is to
do high knee's.

How To do Pressup
Here is one way to do a pressup. The easy way
is to feet in the air and knees on the ground,pushup
and down.The hardest way is one leg and the other leg
onto the leg on the bottom,pushup and down.

How To Do Pullups
You go the ground.Also we are doing pullups on
the ground.So there is two ways.One way is to 
put your legs flat on the ground and then pullup. The other
way is that you knee's are up and then you just pullup.

Life on other planets

LI.To identify the conditions required for life and human life
We made a presentation for 2 planets and why they can't or can sustain life.
My group made a presentation for Uranus and Mars. Uranus can't sustain life unless you have oxygen tanks and other supplies.The other reason why you can't live on Uranus is because there are many gases that are cold.In Mars there is 0.2 oxygen Mars can also sustain life. 

Reading

LI.To Skim and scan
We made a consolation for our reading My partner was Texas. The materials we used were marshmallows and kebab sticks.
A consolation is a group of stars like Cassiopeia and many other famous groups of stars that a lot of people know about.





Maori

LI. To state our likes in Te Reo
We were watching a video about Puanga. People in New Plymouth celebrate Puanga because it's the closest place to see Puanga. We also made a poster of what we like but the translation was in Maori.

For an example: He Pai Ki Ahau Kai
In English Means ( I Like Food )
